Need new tweeters for Focal 1007Be

Bif,

One cannot just swap a SS tweeter for a Focal one, the cutout for one does not fit, but thats just the mechanical part of it, the crossover before that tweeter is optimized for the Focal driver, the SS would yield a completely different result.

ScanSpeak drivers are made in Denmark, and their drivers are available through Madisound here in the US, not that this would help our unfortunate friend. The currency in Denmark is Kroner, current exchange rate is DKK 5.50 to one US$

Other than that I agree that $950 for one tweeter is expensive

Good Listening

Peter

Peter .... agree that OP should not swap any other driver or component into his Focals unless a genuine Focal part. As I said above, "[n]ot suggesting that the OP use anything other than a Focal tweeter. Just curious about pricing."

Still scratching my head about how Focal comes off charging $950. Maybe it's for a pair. Hard to believe one driver, even one with a Be dome, could cost that much.

Cheers,

Bruce

That was for only one tweeter. One tweeter is shinier than the other but besides that , I think it would be really hard for anyone to hear a difference, if that's possible at all, with beryllium material on one only a couple of years newer than the other one. Especially, after being played for several hundred hours. Very expensive, but in my case, a no brainer at the time given the options.

Thanks for all suggestions. I covered them (damaged areas) with clear tape, do you think that I should put them away from my living room?
The best price I get is $1600 for both of them.
Thanks again.

You could remove them to get acquainted with the process and to Zip lock seal and properly discard the tweeter enclosure. If you don't plan to install them it would still be safe to discard them and wipe any Be dust from the area. Guess tape could also work for now.
